Looks really good, Ed. I used a Scotchbrite and buffing wheels mounted on small spindles to reach between the various non-removable cans on the 37-116 I'm currently restoring. You can chuck it in a portable drill or Dremel to scrub the surfaces. Then selective masking and light touch-up with Krylon metal paint. I'm kinda loathe to pull the RF sub-chasis on this thing, though I guess I'm gonna have to to get to the paper caps and finish the cleanup. Icon_sad Icon_sad

Keep up the good work
